Description

# 🐞 bug report
I'm seeing an unexpected testing failure when I import `google-cloud-storage` via pip, where there is also a subfolder called `grpc` local to the `py_library` under test.

It feels like a bug in how `py_library` resolves, certainly running the test with `python -m unittest [module]` works in the self-contained repro linked below.

### Affected Rule
`py_library` seems to be most likely rule.

### Is this a regression?
Uncertain, going back a few versions of rules_python hit the same issue.

### Description
The key parts is as follows:

`utils/BUILD.bazel:`
```
load("@rules_python//python:defs.bzl", "py_library", "py_test")

py_library(
name = "utils",
srcs = ["lib.py"],
visibility = ["//:__subpackages__"],
deps = [
"//utils/grpc",
"@pip//google_cloud_storage",
],
)

py_test(
name = "lib_test",
srcs = ["lib_test.py"],
deps = [":utils"],
)
```
The local `utils/grpc` subfolder just contains another trivial `py_library` that has a function that prints to stdout.

## 🔬 Minimal Reproduction
See https://github.com/paulannetts/bazel_py_issue_apr24

## 🔥 Exception or Error
Truncated error of `bazel test //utils:lib_test` (full error log available which jumps via the various pip dependencies of `google_cloud_storage`)
